For unconditional love and other things / by mirena

When someone tells you repeatedly they love you - you get used to it and when this is gone you terribly miss it. Unconditional love is a very hard thing to get over and I have been trying to come to terms with that loss this past week. I will never forget this black monday, I hope the worst is over and I can keep my head up moving forward. My grandfather Spas passed away in the morning of September 28, 2009 bulgarian time and I was absolutely powerless to do anything to be able to see him for one last time. I spent endless summers with him, family and friends and these were the happiest days of my life. Once I found out I sent heartbreaking letters to friends who knew him. This is what a friend of mine wrote back:

mirena -

so sorry to hear of the passing of dear diado spas - such a wonderful vital man full of genuine good spirit - i think he must have had a terrific life and earned a lot of good karma to have continued to enjoy everything as he did at a ripe old age - that plus eating a whole lemon every day!

you are a lucky lady to have had such a real connection to this kind of spirit - so seldom in our world today -

i am sure that his positive vitality will continue to inspire you your whole life - this is when memories can truly have meaning -

please give my condolences to nicki his daughter your dad and your whole family -

my heart is with you!

And he attached this picture from my birthday a couple of years ago - Grandpa Spas is in the middle:
